Watched "The Flock" this afternoon. I've seen lots worse.

Thanks ddp: my eyes were cramping up.

 

Flawles - 6/10
Spiderwick Chronicles - 9/10
The Grand - 5/10
The Air I Breathe - 7/10
Drill Bit Taylor - 7/10
Vantage Point - 7/10 - really undecided, but I decided to give it a 7.
The Other Boleyn Girl - 8/10

Flawless, not bad for a low budget flick
Spiderwick, really suprised me, did not think I would have enjoyed it
as much as I did.
The Air I Breath, Did'nt ring my bells but was ok.
The Grand, have not seen it yet.
Drill Bit Taylor, Did'nt like it, and normally I like all his movies.
Boleyn Girl, I love history, and have been really paying attention to
Henry ever since The Tudors, thing is every time you read
or watch, everybody has different facts on this King.

 

Yea, I was thinking the same thing...

 

Got "The Ruins" today. There will be a sequel. Might as well have been called "The Runs" 2stars/5

 

That's about the run of it

Forgetting Sarah Marshall 5/10 -forgettable

Hancock -- I don't even want to give it a 1. With Samuel L Jackson it might just have worked. Poor Will Smith. 2 unsuitable films in a year.

 

Yea, I've read and heard that movie was just horrible. Will Smith's career could be coming to an end?

I watched Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins last night, I gave it a 10. If you like Martin Lawrence, James Earl Jones, Mike Epps, Cedric The Entertainer, and Michael Clark Duncan, then you will love this movie. It was filled with non stop laughs.

 

I watched the Ruins last night, it wasnt all that bad, I know the slasher movies are really getting boring but at least it kept my attention.

Oh man you saw Journey, I'm jelous, I dont go to movies any more and I got to wait for the DVD, but I loved the original when I was kid, it fascinated the hell out of me, I hope this one will do the same.

 

The Ruins: 4/10

 

Was pleasantly surprised by "The Spiderwick Chronicles."

 

Just a quickie.. 2 films which you might not have heard of.

The search for one-eyed Jimmy 8/10.. low budget it seems, and a very silly story.

Sample People 7/10.. Odd thing from Australia with some great parts and a lot of unknown people.. "Don't be dissin me sandwich mate!" classic.

Look for both in the bargain bins or second hand. You won't be disappointed by either.

 

I love good unknown movies, I tried a search for both, The search for one-eyed Jimmy and Sample people, mostly if you cant get a search on Amazon its usually not out there, Amazon had posters for it but not the movie, I did find Sample people on Amazon and read the review, it really sounded good, I mostly get my movies from blockbuster but forget it they dont carry either one, I even checked with netflix they dont have them either, oh well I gave it a shot.

 

I usually come across both either in bargain bins or the pawn shop places.

Keep your eyes open for them, they are about at £0.99p or less

as for jimmy.. people seem to like it a lot http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117577/

The dvd may be hard to find in the US.. but we can coma to an arrangement as both seem long out of manufacture.. ( I can always indulge in a little shenanagins http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117577/board/nest/71126258

 

I see one-eye jimmy is for sale on the amazon uk site. Now, to see if they ship to the us. Good thing I bought a region free dvd player a few years ago.

 

I saw Hellboy 2: The Golden Army this weekend and thought it was pretty good. Actually liked it better then the first one. Not so much sap and a lot more action! Oh and The Ruins...I never laughed so hard at a "monster" before. Couldn't believe they wasted their time making that piece of crap!! ha ha

 

"In Bruges" dark and different 7/10

 

In Bruges was well worth the watch

 

Watched Grandma's Boy sunday afternoon. Loved the pot & low brow humor. I can never look at Shirley Jones (Mrs. Partridge) the same way again after this movie.




8/10

 

Heard that! Great movie

 

"My room mates said it was ok if you stayed the night..."

"You mean your parents?"

LMFAO! I love that movie, good times...
